INTERNATIONALLY ACCLAIMED SINGER/SONGWRITER/VIOLINIST JEAN WATSON TO APPEAR ON THE HARVEST SHOW
Popular International Artist to Showcase Songs From Her Seventh CD, Steady My Gaze
|
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (September 22, 2015) – Internationally acclaimed singer/songwriter and classically trained violinist Jean Watson is slated to appear as a guest on LeSea Broadcasting’s flagship program, The Harvest Show, on Thursday, September 24, 2015. Watson will discuss and share music from her new album, Steady My Gaze, which is set to impact retail on Friday, October 9, 2015. The new project will be released on the Shadowlands Music label and will be distributed to retail by New Day Distribution. Fans can watch the show live at 9:00 a.m. ET or catch it online at harvest-tv.com. Steady My Gaze features an abundance of Celtic-infused violin, Watson’s signature haunting vocals, along with the special treat of stellar fret-work from master guitarist, Phil Keaggy and guest vocals from Tree63’s John Ellis.
“I chose Steady My Gaze for the title of my new CD because it reflects my desire to keep my heart focused on the Lord, no matter what is going on,” Watson explains. “The songs on this project express my love for God through passionate words and music! The arrangements are energetic and fresh, and Phil Keaggy’s guitar playing is simply amazing. Having John Ellis of Tree63 sing on one of the songs was such an honor, and Billy Smiley did an amazing job as producer. I hope this new music is as encouraging and fun to listen to as it was for me to make!”
Listeners are immediately greeted by the album’s opener, the joyful, exuberant pop confessional, “Overcome,” as Watson’s fetching vocals are embellished by understated beckoning drums and meandering electronic keys. The joy continues with the driving rhythms and uplifting message of “Together Now,” which features Watson and Tree63’s John Ellis playing tag-team on the lead vocals. The high energy subsides for the more subdued yet equally passionate, acoustic ballad, “Impossibly Beautiful.”
The gentle, bluegrass-tinged title track gives Watson room to expand her emotion-laden vocals as she encourages listeners to allow Christ the freedom to live, move, breathe and come alive in their lives. “Steady My Gaze” segues effortlessly into the sweetly evocative piano ballad, “Speeding Train,” which also features Keaggy’s lush guitar. Watson downshifts to the haunting, introspective, yet encouraging, “I’ll Find You There.”
Watson’s innate energy once again explodes with tightly-focused control on the rocking “Burning Desire.” She continues to channel that control on the gently driving “Against Your Love.” The music takes a delightful, unexpected turn as Watson wraps her signature vocals around the beloved classic hymn, “Be Thou My Vision.” She imbues the song with rich textures and embellishments, making it truly her own.
Joy takes center stage on Watson’s updated, up-tempo version of “Lord of the Dance,” but it is peace that settles over the project’s concluding contemporary hymn, “Trust His Hands.” She closes the project with a lovely, worship-filled acoustic version of “Overcome” that features her own pristine violin and acoustic guitar from Keaggy.
Watson shared songs from Steady My Gaze as the musical guest for Christian Retailing‘s Best Awards during the recent International Christian Retail Show (ICRS) in Orlando, Florida, eliciting an outpouring of accolades from fans and industry insiders alike.
“When Jean was performing/worshipping, I felt a very strong sense of the Holy Spirit,” noted
Christian Retailing’s editor, Christine Johnson. “I was so glad we were able to have such a significant talent and worshipful artist play and sing so beautifully at this year’s
Christian Retailing’s Best awards.”

Paul Baloche Aspires To Make Christmas A Season Of Worship, Releases Christmas Worship Vol. 2 Oct. 2
Sep 22, 2015 Artist Updates, New Release
PAUL BALOCHE ASPIRES TO MAKE CHRISTMAS A SEASON OF WORSHIP,
RELEASES CHRISTMAS WORSHIP VOL. 2 OCT. 2
Recording Features Collaborations With All Sons & Daughters, Kathryn Scott,
Lenny LeBlanc, Onajé Jefferson, Graham Kendrick, More
Baloche’s Touring/Workshop/Teaching Schedule Takes Him Around The World
One of today’s most influential worship leaders, songwriters and artists, Paul Baloche, releases Christmas Worship Vol. 2 globally Oct. 2 through Integrity Music. The album features Christmas classics seamlessly married with vertical worship lyrics, and is an extension of Baloche’s 30-year mission in ministry to equip worshipers and worship leaders with songs and resources that help them express glory to God.
For singer/songwriter Paul Baloche, writer of worship standards like “Open The Eyes Of My Heart,” “Hosanna,” “Our God Saves,” “Your Name” and “A New Hallelujah,” Christmas is a season of worship. With Christmas Worship, Baloche is aiming higher than nostalgia; higher than recreating the sounds of the season.
“There is so much content and beauty and theology in a song like ‘Hark the Herald Angels Sing’ and ‘What Child Is This?,’ but most of these traditional carols are not vertical in nature; not speaking to the Lord,” says Baloche. “‘O Holy Night’ is a perfect example. At the climax, we’re singing, hands raised, to a thing, ‘Oh night divine.’ By adding a simple chorus at the end, a response to the beauty of the lyric, melody and the nostalgia of these beautiful carols, and then segueing into a first-person response in keeping with the Advent season, it’s amazing the shift in perspective.”
“Paul has a genuine passion to see local church worship leaders equipped to lead their churches week in and week out,” says Adrian Thompson, VP Song & Artist Development at Integrity Music. “This project comes from Paul’s desire to see local churches engaged in worship during the advent season rather than just having a season of special church music.”
Produced by Baloche and Michael Rossback (The Brilliance/Desperation Band) Christmas Worship Vol. 2 follows the 2013 release of Christmas Worship (Vol. 1) and continues the collaborative, community aesthetic for which Baloche is known: Modern folk/worship duo All Sons & Daughters put a beautifully simple spin on “Joy To the World/Our God Saves” while Irish worship leader Kathryn Scott joins Baloche on “O Holy Night/Love Shines Bright.” Lenny LeBlanc, with whom Baloche wrote the Dove Award winning song, “Above All,” contributes to the reimagining of “The First Noel/Above All,” and Onajé Jefferson (Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir/New Breed) gives “It Came Upon A Midnight Clear/Glorious” a soulful gospel vibe. WorshipMob’s Gina Milne adds a sweet tenderness to “What Child Is This/Praise Emmanuel” and veteran British worship leader Graham Kendrick and Baloche reimagine their song “Creation’s King,” now titled “Newborn King.”
Another highlight on Christmas Worship Vol. 2 is “When Love Crossed Over,” a new song written by Baloche’s wife Rita and performed by Madison Cunningham, a young Calvary Chapel worship leader and daughter of Costa Mesa worship pastor Scott Cunningham. In addition, the traditional “Silent Night” gets the Baloche family treatment, with Rita and their son David (who also plays guitar on the project) joining Paul on vocals.
“In many ways, I’m even more excited about Christmas Worship Vol. 2 because of the collective, community nature of it,” Baloche says. “So many friendships and relationships have been forged through the years. This is like a ‘Paul Baloche and Friends’ project, which is such a beautiful thing. There are different streams and generations represented in this effort, and each one inspires me in different ways to write and sing and be better.”
In addition to the new album, Baloche’s touring/workshop/teaching schedule takes him around the world. Having recently returned from a concert/workshop in Manilla (Philippines) followed by the Experience Conference in Orlando, he will host “LeadWorship” workshops beginning today in Portland (Sept. 18-19) and in Fairfield, CT (Oct. 30-31). He will also be featured at a “Christmas In September: A Conversation With Paul Baloche” Multitracks webinar Tuesday, Sept. 22 beginning at 2pm CT. Following a workshop and concert in Issaquah, WA (Nov. 13-14), Baloche travels back overseas to The Netherlands and the United Kingdom before returning to North America for a series of Canadian Christmas events to begin Dec. 1. All the latest tour news can be found at http://www.leadworship.com/calendar/.
About Paul Baloche:
Best known for such modern classics as “Open the Eyes of My Heart,” “Above All,” “Hosanna” and “Your Name,” three-time Dove Award-winning Paul Baloche has had his songs recorded by numerous artists, including Michael W. Smith, Casting Crowns, Matt Redman and Philips, Craig & Dean. In addition to writing, recording and touring, Baloche has created a variety of teaching DVDs, along with many free resources designed specifically for worship leaders and musicians. He has also written the books, The Same Love: A Devotion(David C Cook) and God Songs–How to Write and Select Songs for Worship. He is further a contributing writer for both Worship Leader and Worship Musician magazines and is a featured blogger on ChurchLeaders.com.

ENTERTAINER JULIE ELIAS RELEASES NEW CD
Sep 13, 2015 Artist Updates, New Release
Today’s Release of ‘Unbroken’ Coincides with Elias’ Performance at the Experience Conference |
|
September 11, 2015 (Nashville, Tenn.) – Christian entertainer Julie Elias releases her new CD, “Unbroken,” today. The upbeat, high energy collection of original songs features “Home,” the first single from the CD which currently is being played at Christian INSPO/Soft AC and Christian AC-formatted radio stations. The CD release coincides with Elias performing at the Experience Conference and other events in Orlando, Florida, this week. “Performing at the Experience Conference on the day of my CD release is such a blessing,” Elias says. “I’m excited about all of the young people who will be at the event, because I created this CD to have a special connection to teen girls and as a companion piece to my Aurora Conferences, day-long events that focus on building self-esteem among girls in grades six through 12,” Elias says. “But while the songs on the album are about topics teens face daily, these issues are not limited to just teenagers! My prayer is that the music on ‘Unbroken’ will touch people of all ages. The overall theme is that no matter what happens, it is well, we are all in good hands. We are all unbroken.” Elias, whose influences include Sara Bareilles, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood and Francesca Battistelli, wrote the majority of the songs on the CD. Topics for the songs on the CD range from bullying to romantic relationships to consequences, all aimed at connecting to issues facing young people. “Home,” the first single, focuses on how good it feels to go home after a busy day at school or work, or come home from college at the end of a long semester. “Sometimes though, we can’t physically make it home but that doesn’t mean we can’t experience that same comfort,” Elias says. “Running to God and feeling refreshed by Him can happen whenever we can step away and trust Him with the chaos in our life.” Elias has included two special selections on the 12-track CD. “The Love of the Lord Endures” is Elias’ rendition of a beloved Joy Williams song that Elias sang in church as a teenager. The other bonus track on the CD is titled “It Is Well,” a worship song by Bethel that ties into Elias’ favorite hymn of the same name. Elias is set to tour throughout the Fall in support of her new CD, as well as lead Aurora Conferences, a day-long event blending drama, music and special speakers developed by the former “Grey’s Anatomy” actress especially for girls in grades 6-12 and their mothers. Although Elias studied music theater in college, the California native never envisioned a career as a singer, choosing, instead, to move to Los Angeles to pursue acting. She quickly secured roles in popular TV series, such as “Grey’s Anatomy” and “CSI: NY,” as well as in films with the likes of Tom Hanks and Julia Roberts. The success she found in Hollywood, however, left her unfulfilled. “I had some great experiences but felt something was missing, so I started praying for God’s direction in my life,” Elias said. “I prayed that I would be willing to be obedient in whatever He had planned for me.” Within months, Elias was writing and recording her first album, “A Wild Rose,” and singing at the Experience Conference in Orlando. In the past few years, she has released a Christmas album, fronted her own Christmas tours, sang at major Christian festivals and conferences, and worshipped with many churches throughout North America. In August 2014, Elias released a worship album titled “Love Rain Down” featuring upbeat, energetic worship songs that Elias has performed at student events throughout the nation. Elias founded Aurora Ministries, a 501(c)3 that produces the Aurora Conferences, last year. For more information about Elias and “Unbroken,” visit julieeliasmusic.com. |
DOVE AWARD WINNER CHERI KEAGGY APPEARS ON THE HARVEST SHOW
Sep 13, 2015 Artist Updates
Popular Singer/Songwriter Showcases Songs From Her Ninth Album,
No Longer My Own, on Popular TV Show |
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (September 10, 2015) – Dove Award winner Cheri Keaggy recently appeared as a guest on LeSea Broadcasting’s flagship program The Harvest Show, where she discussed her new album, No Longer My Own, which released to retail August 7, from Psalm 91 Records and Elevate Entertainment. The project is the popular singer/songwriter’s ninth full-length CD to date. The Harvest Show reaches more than 46 million North American homes through 13 LeSea affiliate stations, including Denver, Tulsa, Okla., Honolulu, Colorado Springs, Colorado, and New Orleans. Fans who missed the live broadcast can watch Cheri’s appearance on the Internet at The Harvest Show’s website, harvest-tv.com. “I love doing The Harvest Show. Valerie (Lowe) and Stefan (Radelich) always make the ‘live TV’ thing feel less intimidating,” says Keaggy. “There was something extra special about this visit though. As I stepped up to the mic to sing “Overcome,” my mind flashed back to the day I wrote the song. I had asked God what He would have me write about, and felt like He answered me in the song. Like He was giving me a message to share. Standing there getting ready to perform it for the first time on live television, a show that goes into millions of homes, I felt the Lord’s pleasure. It was like I had been obedient to write and record the song, and now He was giving me an opportunity to deliver the hope of John 16:33. It was a very sweet and powerful moment for me.” # # #

NASHVILLE, Tenn.
